I am a master of light novels in Japan

"Sorry, I didn't mean it."

Li Yan realized that the blond girl writer was already sitting next to him, and said apologetically.

"It doesn't matter, after all, if you are idle all of a sudden, it is natural to think about the plot like you, after all, this is the serious author."

This girl with a snow-white complexion and a childish face showed a confident smile, patted her flat chest lightly, and introduced herself: "When we first met, my name is Elf Yamada. I’m the author of "Burning Dark Fairy", please give me your advice."

"Hello, I am Uesugi Yan, the author of "Super Academy War", please advise me." Li Yan replied politely.

It should be said that it was indeed the first time that the two of them met, but Li Yan was familiar with the author of the Yamada Fairy, after all, the other party was the ace writer who had won the ORICON ranking.

At the beginning of the story, Li Yan realized that if he met this young girl, it might not be a good thing. After all, he was a peer, or an arrogant writer whose current work strength crushed him. When dealing with women who are arrogant and indifferent, they may be ridiculed from time to time by each other in the future. After all, when dealing with authors, daily sales mocking and belittling other authors are what he hates most.

Moreover, the title of the book seems to be quite detrimental to him. According to Feng Shui, her debut work is almost like his natural enemy.

"I have always been very interested in getting to know Uesugiyan, who was a dark horse last year. I used to visit you today, but you seem to be away. Did the Kagurazaka editor and other authors tell you about this?"

"Yes, I heard that they have said about your coming, but the work schedule is busy today, so I have been busy until now, sorry, I should have visited you earlier." Li Yan could only guilty prevarication and said.

"That's it, today's arrangement is indeed very tight, and your speech is really wonderful, you can see that your servant book fans really like your book, love it deeply, and hate it."

Yamada Ilfu said with a smile casually.

"...Uh, yes."

Li Yanqing answered with a face. He shivered when he thought of the almost out-of-control scene. This is almost the dark history of his career. He was surrounded by readers just after the interview. The fiction industry should be regarded as an unprecedented precedent.

"Well, can I find out about Uesugi's new book? Hehe, I'm actually writing a new book recently. I want to know Uesugi's subject matter, and I hope to make proper arrangements."

Elf Yamada, who was sitting next to him, casually shook his little feet, showing a slight smile, looked at Li Yan curiously, and asked with a smile.

"Oh, this... there is indeed a plan for a new book." Li Yan was stunned, and realized at once, why Yamada Elf looks a little bit the same as he did in the morning, but the result is because he planned to ask questions. Material problem.

In the fiction industry, as long as works are released in a domestic market, works of the same type are undoubtedly the type of rivals among rivals.

The reason why Yamada Elf would inquire about it was probably to examine the extent to which his new book might impact her new book. After all, the last "Super Academy War" just touched on the subject of different worlds and fairy power. Some of his debut works overlap, so his books have always been compared with her works on the Internet, and it is precisely this that Li Yan learned about the author of the Yamada Fairy very early.

"Teacher Yamada, don't worry. My new book is probably not threatening to a writer of the same level as Mr. Yamada. I feel a little flattered to be inquired by you."

Li Yan said flatly.

He didn't mean to be ironic. After all, the difference in strength was too great. The opponent had won the first place in the ORICON ranking, so it is indeed an honor for the opponent to care about his new works.There is no age distinction in the field of writing. Although he is a few years older than Ilves, his writing talent is indeed quite amazing.

"Huh~~~"

Yamada Ilfu exhaled, then his face became serious, and his eyebrows frowned slightly and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, I don't like to listen to kind words, what you say is like looking down on your own work." what."

"..." Li Yan was taken aback for a while, looking at the girl whose expression became serious.

"Don't be presumptuous. After I bought all of your books, I spent a lot of time researching and reading them before deciding to get to know you. After all, I like your books very much, and they exude seriousness and enjoyment. The taste of the novel, now your total sales volume should be around 700,000 copies, and there are more than 1 million copies in ten volumes, so there is not much difference between the strength of your first work and mine. What makes me even more concerned is Every volume of yours has made obvious progress. This is the most terrifying old thief like this. How dare I despise it?"

Elf Yamada stretched out his finger, shook it, smiled arrogantly, and said, “Since the so-called novelist intends to put his work on the market, he is naturally trying to win over other authors, so it is appropriate to investigate the market. But It doesn’t mean that I really can’t afford to lose. I mainly come to meet like-minded authors. As for the information of the new book, see if you voluntarily say it. Anyway, I won’t lose easily.”

"..."

Li Yan was a little surprised when he heard what Elf Yamada said. Although the first impression would make people feel particularly arrogant and not very good, only now knows that the accident is a good person.

"The subject of the next new book should be monsters." Li Yan thought for a while, and finally told Yi Erfu Yamada the next book, and said calmly.

"Youkai? So that's it, it is indeed a good theme. It is completely different from mine. My next book is going to write about idol cultivation, so that the market target is slightly staggered."

Irf Yamada breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

After all, the strength and market share of Uesugiyan, known as the old thief, cannot be underestimated in any way. Even if it is not a zero-sum game, the listing of a rookie work of the same type will generally cause a certain loss in sales of other works. She naturally There is a measure of how many copies of such excellent works can be accommodated in the market, so that one's own efforts will not fall into over-saturated competition and be wasted.

This is also a responsible attitude towards my new books and readers.

Although it is not clear why, after hearing that there was such a book on the Internet, she bought it and read it again. In the end, she wanted to get to know the author who dared to write a passionate story in the world of cute light novels. With a lot of serious attitude, enjoy the same kind of novel writing...

At this moment, a staff member came over and smiled and said to them: "Ms. Uesugi, and Mrs. Yamada, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long. Now it's your turn to play. It's hard work."

Li Yan and Yi Erfu agreed. When they just stood up, they suddenly heard a long scream from the mountain again, making Li Yan and Yi Erfu feel guilty.

By the time it was their turn, it was almost one o'clock in the morning. This was the time when the anger was the heaviest.(The ugly time is 1:00-3:00)

Chapter 115 Light Novel Master and Ugly Time Visit

At 1:11 midnight, the mountain breeze is bleak, the forest is roaring, the bright moon is bright and dark, and a ray of silvery white moonlight is falling, but it is fleeting.

The once vermilion torii gate had faded long ago, and it was filled with jet black color. Li Yan came to the front of the stairs, raised his head and looked at the spreading stairs, the wind swept past his ears.

"...I seem to have been dragged into hell, why are I still afraid of such a scene now?"

Li Yan thought with a black face.

"Mama, there are no monsters and ghosts in this world. They are all deceptive tricks. If they are, this lady would like to see them."

Elf Yamada put his hands around his chest and said with an arrogant expression.

"..."

Li Yan took a look at the fairy Yamada, who was still trying to put up Flag. He felt that there were more than monsters and ghosts in this world, and even a traverser stood beside her. It would be better to be more cautious when saying this on such occasions.

"Welcome, Uesugiyan teacher, and Yamada fairy teacher."

Suddenly, a middle-aged male host came out from the camera with a cheerful smile and said to both of them.

"Hello." Li Yan and Yi Erfu Yamada nodded in response.

"Yes, everyone, welcome to this special program "Finding Reality in the Unreal". I am the well-known host Miyamoto. Today is still one of the adventures of light novel writers. There have been a group of light novel writers visiting before. With this abandoned shrine, today’s cursed sacred place, I still remember that the previous group of writers were very scared, so what will happen today?"

The host of the show named Miyamoto was enthusiastic and explained in a frustrated and weird tone. It seemed that he planned to arrange the shooting of the combination of Li Yan and Yi Erfu Yamada to the next episode of the show. He was very clever and did not say the current time. , It seems that I am planning to make a decision based on the shooting effect.

"Thanks for your hard work today. Both of you are the best-selling novel writers in the light novel industry. That, Mr. Uesugiyan, I also watched the anime "Super Academy War" after you wrote the book and adapted it. There are many reasons and choices in the blood, which are also thought-provoking. Will a passionate novelist like you believe in the existence of ghosts and monsters?"

Miyamoto asked seriously.

In front of the camera, Li Yan wore a mask and hat, nodded and said, "Believe."

"Eh eh eh eh eh? Believe it?!"

Miyamoto asked again with a look of surprise: "Are you sure, so far, you are the first writer to admit their existence without thinking. Why are you so sure of it?"

"..."

Li Yan squinted his eyes. There are many reasons to talk about. Not only did he fight with monsters and ghosts, but he was also dragged into hell. But the consequences of such an experience can be imagined. The whole world thinks he is an extremely middle-second young man, so now he regrets that he believes it.

"This... because after all, there are many unknown existences in the world, isn't it? This is also a fantasy that novelists have been pursuing. Therefore, as a novelist, you should not arbitrarily deny the legends that have been passed down through the ages, although they are very particular now. Science, but I think that to deny everything in scientific terms is itself unscientific, so I choose to believe that there will be ghosts and monsters."
